1901 Map of Big Trees

About this map

The Stanislaus National Forest and Eldorado National Forest dominate this Sierra Nevada landscape, which was surveyed at the end of the 19th century. The map captures the region's early transition from gold-rush fever to conservation and forestry, notably featuring the protected Calaveras Grove and the Calaveras Big Trees. The drainages of the North Fork Mokelumne River and the Middle Fork carve deep into the terrain, where early infrastructure like Abbott Ferry and Bakers Crossing provided essential passage.
